Stuxnet: Anatomy of a Computer Virus

Stuxnet: Anatomy of a Computer Virus is an interesting visualization of the complex thing that is the Stuxnet worm.

Created by Patrick Clair, this short infographic video provides a nice summary of what Stuxnet is and how it differs from your regular, run of the mill virus or worm.

However, it’s a quick overview. If you haven’t read it yet, I highly recommend you check out this older post I made, reviewing Michael Joseph Gross’ essay A Declaration of Cyber-War.

Crazy stuff. It’s Sci-Fi movie territory.
